However, says a release from police, “the motive behind the attack is unclear.” Police say Roberts and the woman, who was stabbed several times with a screwdriver while she worked out, have “no known relationship. The investigation is still in the early stages and is ongoing.”

Staff writer Ashley Rose reports at 10:57 a.m.: Police say a man armed with a screwdriver stabbed a woman at an Irving fitness center this morning, seemingly without any provocation.

Officers responded to the stabbing call at the 24 Hour Fitness Center on State Highway 183 shortly before 6 a.m. and found the 49-year-old victim with several puncture wounds.

Witnesses held the 33-year-old suspect until police arrived, and he was taken into custody. The man and woman, both gym members, were not identified, but police spokesman James McLellan said they did not know each other.

That stabbing call followed a 5:30 a.m. call to police about a suspicious man, the suspect, carrying a suitcase around the facility and not working out. Employees told police that he was a member of the gym so they left, McLellan said.

Witnesses tell police that the 33-year-old suspect stabbed the woman while she was working out. There was no argument between them before the altercation, McLellan said. It came out of nowhere.

The woman was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital. Her injuries don’t appear to be life threatening.

The man is being charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. His name is being withheld until his arraignment later today.

A Dallas man was arrested Saturday morning after police say he dressed in women’s underwear and exposed himself to a teenage girl.

Billie Toten, 54, faces a charge of indecency with a child involving exposure, police records show. He remains in the Dallas County Jail with bail set at $15,000.

Officers responded to a call around midnight Friday at an apartment complex in the 2100 block of Highland Road, off Ferguson Road in Far East Dallas.

The 14-year-old girl and other witnesses say Toten was “moving and shaking around” in the window of his apartment while wearing a black thong and black bra. They said he also exposed himself through the window every 10 to 15 minutes for three to four hours.

Dallas police knocked on Toten’s door several times with no response, but saw him through the window lying on the ground in his apartment under the water heater, according to police records.

A Mesquite man was arrested Thursday after police say he used his cellphone to peep under women’s skirts at a northeast Dallas Walmart.

Luis Chagolla-Delgado, 47, was arrested on a charge of improper photography or visual recording at the store off Northwest Highway and Skillman Street, police records show.

Police say Chagolla-Delgado was placing his cellphone on a floor sweeper and pushing it under the skirts of shoppers about 12:30 pm. Thursday when an off-duty officer spotted him and grabbed the phone.

He told the officer it was his “first time” and that he simply hoped the videos could somehow improve his marriage.

“I hoped this would help so I could have sex with my wife,” he told the officer, according to his arrest warrant affidavit.

A Dallas man who stalked a teenage neighbor and tattooed her name all over his body was sentenced to 20 years in prison Thursday for shooting the girl’s father.

Gabriel Ramirez, 23, pleaded guilty to stalking and aggravated assault after breaking into the 17-year-old girl’s home in South Dallas and shooting her father multiple times.

On the day of the shooting the teen was at home with her parents when there was a knock at the door. “I tried to open the door but it was pushed into me,” the teen’s father testified, “right away [Ramirez] started firing.” Ramirez shot the father three times before fleeing back to his home.

The father survived but needed multiple surgeries to repair his punctured liver, stomach and lung.

Ramirez was never in a relationship with the teen but tried repeatedly to contact her before the shooting, including sending her flowers for her birthday. He also got 11 tattoos of the teen’s name across his chest, neck and arms — some of which were decorated with hearts and included her birth date and address.

“[My friends] told me the most romantic thing someone can do is tattoo their name on them,” Ramirez testified in court.

During testimony Ramirez blamed his infatuation on the drugs he was using. But prosecutors say he got some of the tattoos after the shooting and sent the teen and her parents multiple letters from behind bars.

“I’ll do anything for u cuzz I love u,” Ramirez wrote in one of the three letters he sent to the teen, “but really wen I get out and I see ur with someone else Imma act a fool no matter how it is cuzz ur my girl.”

The teen chose not to testify and kept her head down throughout the trial, holding the hands of those next to her when Ramirez took the stand.

Ramirez received 10 years for stalking and the maximum sentence of 20 years for aggravated assault, which he will serve concurrently. He will be eligible for parole in nine years.

Employees at a State Farm insurance office in North Dallas received bomb threats Monday from someone posing as police.

Police were called to the office in the 11800 block of Preston Road about 4:30 p.m. after an employee reported threatening phone calls from an unidentified person.

A man left a voicemail posing as a Dallas detective. The employee returned the call, and a man using a voice-altering device answered saying, “This is the city of Dallas and this is to let you know there is a bomb in your building.”

According to police reports, two more phone calls came from different numbers while officers were at the scene. One of the callers was placed on speakerphone and said, “I don’t care if they shoot me, [expletive] the [expletive] police.”

Police had no further information, and no arrests have been made in the case.

Three teens were arrested Sunday after Carrollton police say they threw rocks at passing cars.

Police responded to reports of rock throwing in the 1600 block of Audubon Court around 5:45 a.m. and saw the three suspects hiding behind a stone wall in a nearby neighborhood. The suspects ran away, leaving several large rocks in the road, police said. According to police, one of the rocks was the size of a softball and shattered a driver’s windshield.

Officers caught David Oh, 17, after a short chase and apprehended the two accomplices later that night. All three are charged with engaging in organized criminal activity, evading police on foot and two counts of deadly conduct. The other two suspects are not being identified because they are juveniles.

Police are asking any drivers who experienced similar car damage in the area to call an officer at 972-466-3333.

Charmelle Henry, 45, remains in the Midland County Jail on two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after her arrest Saturday. Bail was set at $100,000.

Workers at a small food stand say Henry became enraged after she ordered a 75-cent corn dog Friday night and was handed a microwaved meat stick. She demanded an uncooked corn dog and threatened the lives of store workers as they tried to serve her, they said. She flashed a pocket-knife a knife and began stabbing the counter.

When officers arrived, they had to use a police dog to detain Henry, who refused several orders to drop to the ground and surrender, police said.

Robert Allen Thomas, 37, remains in Dallas County Jail in lieu of $26,000 bail after being arrested Tuesday afternoon. Officers were called to the 4000 block of Worth Street to a clinic where Thomas was being treated after he threatened to retrieve his gun and “shoot up” the business, police records say.

According to the records, Thomas was unhappy with the treatment he was receiving for several sexually transmitted diseases and a foot fungus.

While police were attempting to take him to Green Oaks Hospital, they tried to handcuff Thomas, but before they could secure both of his hands he began punching one of the three officers in the face, bruising and cutting the area around his eye and breaking his nose, the reports say. Officers then pepper-sprayed him and were able to detain him.

Thomas was taken into custody, and the injured officer was taken to Baylor University Medical Center.
